Arkansas beat Michigan

[TomTraubertsBlues]

I always hate it when someone's fat ego tries to speak for everybody.

It's especially persuasive when someone opens a thread clearly labeled to say they don't care.

Dont really get how Arkansas would be considered better at 3pt shooting than us

Because they literally are? We’re shooting 35.9% from 3 and they’re shooting 36.5%.

I always wondered whether Thiero needed glasses. He was always squinting looking over at the bench or up at the scoreboard. Shhhhhhhh, don't tell their trainer. They'll get him some rec specs and he'll look like Steph Curry out there!

Splitting hairs....

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before-

An uber talented Calipari coached team sprints out to a huge early lead and is cruising just after halftime, but for some reason, they slow the pace way down and try to milk the clock. They begin to tense up, miss a wheelbarrow full of free throws, and grind further until the score ties up. They require a couple of hero plays late to stave off the comeback victory.

Sounds vaguely familiar.

That didn't happen. Obviously you didn't watch the game. I thought Michigan had a very talented team as well. They will be very hard to beat in the Big 10 and the NCAA.

I didn't watch anywhere near all of the game, but saw enough to see that Michigan had a talented team and an unusual mix of size. I totally agree with you, they will be a handful for anyone to beat in the Big 10 and the NCAA tournament. No question !!

I'll take that bet, as much as you want. 2 of the 3 are currently below 40% and they haven't dipped their toes in the SEC yet.

That guy is on crack

I watched the 2nd half- You're right that I didn't watch the whole game. But I turned it on in plenty of time to see Cal take his foot off the gas and slow down the tempo, then nearly cough up a huge lead.

And that has nothing to do with Michigan being a good team, which they are.

If Fland or Thiero get in foul trouble it’s over for them.

Thiero did not play his usual amount last night. You don't have to like them but they are gradually getting healthy and getting better. I pull for every SEC team during OOC.

The SEC never pulls for us.

I don't care, I will still pull for the SEC in all OOC games. It is good for our conference so that is good for UK. I have never seen a conference as good as we are at present.

Arkansas beat them because they wanted to.

Will they always care? Probably not. Cal was good at winning when he wanted to.

 

[BleedBlue63]

thought Michigan was going to pull that game out
really liked the big forward, Wolf. He played really well.
7' and handles the ball like a guard, very good passer
he would have done well in Pope's system

Michigan would have won if they hadn’t run out of time.

Exactly like Kansas thank goodness in 2012 dude is just a complete clown bench coach

I was making a (too subtle?) reference to what Bill self said in 2012.
